Water Hammer with Column Separation:

Column separation refers to the breaking of liquid columns in fully filled pipelines. This may occur in a water hammer event when the pressure drops to the vapor pressure at specific locations such as closed ends, high points or knees (changes in pipe slope). A vapor cavity, driven by the inertia of the parting liquid columns, will start to grow. The cavity acts as a vacuum, a low-pressure poin...

Multiple Scales Analysis of Water Hammer Attenuation

A multiple scales analysis is used to construct a uniformly accurate approximation to water hammer pressure wave attenuation that is initiated by a sudden valve opening. The method of analysis is well suited to the study of a water hammer that possesses several time scales and is applied to a mild generalization of the classical equations. It should prove useful for finding attenuation curves w...

Vulnerability assessment of surface water quality with an innovative integrated multi-parameter water quality index (IMWQI)

The development of a surface water evaluation index is a critical factor in the assessment, restoration and protection of stream water quality. Quantifying water pollution in specific grade using dominant parameters is important, as this can explain the current state of water pollution with accuracy. As a result, an integrated multi-parameter water quality index has been developed. It is based ...
